Der Mann aus Kentucky (1955)
Farmer Elias Wakefield, des ewigen Streits mit seinen Nachbarn, den gefürchteten Fromes-Brüdern, müde, bricht mit seinem Sohn nach Texas auf, um ein neues Leben zu beginnen. Als die beiden bei Wakefields älterem Bruder Station machen, verliebt sich Elias in die Dorflehrerin Susie. Doch hinter ihr ist auch der Saloon-Besitzer Bodine her. Um Elias los zu werden, setzt Bodine die Fromes-Brüder auf seine Spur, und es kommt zu einem dramatischen Showdown.
